Wind in Hayao Miyazaki Films
In Miyazaki’s films, the idea of wind appears in many forms, technological, magical, physical, and emotional.
1. Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
2. My Neighbor Totoro
3. Kiki’s Delivery Service
4. Spirited Away
5. Howl’s Moving Castle
6. Ponyo
7. The Wind Rises
Wind is kinetic energy, and Miyazaki seems fascinated by the way wind can be transformed from a non-usable form to electricity that powers cities. Turbines derive their power from rotational motion, and it is this idea that drives Miyazaki’s stories. It is the idea of turning, of transforming, of making wind into magic, into science.
